Gedanken zu Eternity, Juli 2019
Verbindung des Esoterischen (Eternity) mit dem Spielerischen (Mozart).
Der Wunsch nach einem Neuanfang: worauf bezieht sich der Neuanfang?
L\u00e4sst sich etwas Geschehenes ver\u00e4ndern, allein durch die Art, wie ich es betrachte, wie ich dar\u00fcber berichte?
Das Unterbewusstsein l\u00e4sst sich nicht neu starten.
Ich stelle mir vor: Musik, die einerseits konsequent in ihrer Struktur ist (fast schon: langweilig konsequent). Musik, die andererseits in ihrer Konsequenz \u00fcberrascht.
Ich stelle mir vor: ein St\u00fcck verungl\u00fccken zu lassen. Und in diesem Ungl\u00fcck zu verweilen, zu enden.
Entweder: das St\u00fcck verungl\u00fcckt \u2212 Oder: das St\u00fcck findet sich selbst (seine Bestimmung).
Zu “Entweder”: Nach einer vielf\u00e4ltigen Konsolidierungsphase st\u00fcrzt das St\u00fcck unerwartet in sich zusammen und verharrt in Resignation.
Zu “Oder”: Nach anf\u00e4nglichem Umherirren und spielerisch-unbek\u00fcmmertem Ausprobieren und Umherschweifen findet das St\u00fcck pl\u00f6tzlich (unerwartet) zu sich selbst und folgt dieser Bestimmung konsequent.
Ich stelle mir vor: das St\u00fcck bewegt sich entlang eines mysteri\u00f6sen Lichtstrahls durch die dunkle, schwarze, mondlose Nacht.
Das St\u00fcck ist nicht das, worauf ich gewartet, woraufhin ich meine Arbeit ausgerichtet habe. Einen Teil muss ich loslassen (sterben lassen), damit mir das St\u00fcck gegen\u00fcberstehen kann.
Dann gibt es: Ich und das St\u00fcck. Und etwas drittes: die Reaktion. Das ist: Die Erfindung. Oder auch Provokation. Vielleicht Vorstellung. Das St\u00fcck ist das Andere, welches ich in mir zulasse.
Eternity ist ein spielerisches St\u00fcck. Ein leichtes St\u00fcck. Ein harmloses St\u00fcck. Es ist Musik, frei von den Urteilen meiner Zeit.

“A creative writer must study carefully the works of his rivals, including the Almighty. He must possess the inborn capacity not only of recombining but of re-creating the given world. In order to do this adequately, avoiding duplication of labor, the artist should know the given world. Imagination without knowledge leads no farther than the back yard of primitive art, the child\u00b4s scrawl on the fence, and the crank\u00b4s message in the market place. Art is never simple.”
